Pragmatica Law LLP (“Pragmatica” or “we” or “us”) respects the privacy of our clients and others who provide personal information to us. This Privacy Policy describes how Pragmatica collects, uses, discloses, and stores the personal data that we collect from visitors to our website located at www.pragmaticalaw.com (the “Site”) and from our clients and others. Pragmatica is the controller of the personal data that we collect (“Data Controller”).
Pragmatica may need to update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If so, we will post our updated Privacy Policy on the Site and update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page. For material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will provide more prominent notice, which may include sending you an email notification where we have your email address. Pragmatica encourages you to review this Privacy Policy regularly for any changes. Your continued use of the Site and/or continued provision of personal data to us will be subject to the terms of the then-current Privacy Policy.
You can generally visit our Site without revealing any personal data about yourself. However, in certain sections of this Site, you may contact us or request information, apply for a job, subscribe to our mailing list, or provide us with feedback. Due to the nature of some of these activities, we may collect personal data such as your name, address, e-mail address, phone number or any other information that you submit to us. We may also collect information automatically through cookies and similar tracking technologies as described in the “Cookies and Tracking Technologies” section below. Additionally, we may collect personal data about you that you provide to us when you contact us. If we respond to your inquiry, no attorney-client relationship will form unless and until you and we execute a formal Engagement Letter. If we execute a formal Engagement Letter with you, in addition to your contact and billing information we will collect any personal data and other information that you provide so that we may perform the requested legal services. If you are a client of our firm, your information and confidences will be handled professionally subject to the restrictions and requirements of the applicable state statutes, regulations, and Rules of Professional Conduct governing attorney-client relationships (collectively the “Rules”). Subject to the Rules, we may use your personal data for our legitimate business interests, as needed to perform the legal services you have requested, for billing and collection purposes, and otherwise as needed to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation as set forth below. We may also use your personal information to send you newsletters and similar communications that we believe may be of interest to you, but you may opt-out of receiving such communications at any time as indicated in the email or as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy. We also use your personal data to manage our relationship with you, provide the services you request, administer and protect our Site, and to analyze data analytics to improve our Site and services.
The Site may track the total number of visitors to our Site, the number of visitors to each page of our Site, browser type, IP addresses, External Web Sites (defined below) linked to, and we may analyze this data for trends and statistics in the aggregate, but such information will be maintained, used and disclosed in aggregate form only and it will not contain personal data. We may use such aggregate information to analyze trends, administer the Site, track users’ movement, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use.
We and our third-party service providers use cookies, web beacons, pixel tags, and similar tracking technologies on our Site to collect information about your browsing activities and to improve your experience. “Cookies” are small data files placed on your device that allow us to recognize your browser and remember certain information about your visit. We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse new cookies, be notified when a new cookie is set, or delete existing cookies. Disabling cookies may affect the functionality of certain portions of our Site.
We do not currently use cookies or similar technologies to track users over time and across third-party websites or to provide targeted advertising. With respect to browser-based “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) signals, because there is no common industry standard for responding to such signals, our Site does not currently respond to browser DNT signals. However, to the extent required by applicable law, including the California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”), we will honor opt-out preference signals transmitted through a recognized Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) mechanism.
The personal data that we collect is used only within Pragmatica except as stated below. We will disclose your personal data (a) if we are required to do so by law, regulation or other government authority or otherwise in cooperation with an ongoing investigation of a governmental authority, (b) to enforce Pragmatica’s contractual or legal rights, (c) to protect the safety of users of our Site and our services, or (d) to respond to a data breach or security incident as required by applicable law. We may transfer your personal data to an affiliate or a successor entity upon a merger, consolidation or other corporate reorganization in which Pragmatica participates or to a purchaser or acquirer of all or substantially all of Pragmatica’s business or assets to which this Site and/or the services offered on this Site relate. We may also disclose your personal data to our third-party service providers and vendors, who are acting on our behalf and using your information solely as directed by us, and who are contractually bound to appropriate confidentiality and data protection obligations, such as hosting providers, practice management software providers, or companies that send emails on our behalf and manage opt-out requests. We will not sell or otherwise distribute your personal data to any company or organization for their own marketing or commercial use without your consent.
In the event of a security breach involving your personal data, Pragmatica will notify you as required by applicable law, including California Civil Code §1798.82. Such notification will describe the nature of the information compromised, the steps we are taking to address the breach, and the steps you may consider taking to protect yourself. We will provide such notice in the most expedient time possible and without unreasonable delay. Notifications will be delivered to you via email or, if we do not have a valid email address for you, by such other means as permitted by applicable law.
Pragmatica recognizes the privacy interests of children, and Pragmatica encourages parents and guardians to take an active role in their children’s online activities and interests. The Site and our services are not intended for children under the age of 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children under the age of 18 in a manner inconsistent with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”). Pragmatica targets its Site or the services offered on this Site to adults and not to children under 18. If we learn that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under the age of 18 without parental consent, we will take steps to delete such information as soon as reasonably practicable.
The Site may provide links to other websites or resources over which Pragmatica does not have control (“External Web Sites”). Such links do not constitute an endorsement by Pragmatica of those External Web Sites. You acknowledge that Pragmatica is providing these links to you only as a convenience, and further agree that Pragmatica is not responsible for the content of such External Web Sites. Your use of External Web Sites is subject to the terms of use and privacy policies located on the linked to External Web Sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any External Web Sites you visit.
We employ administrative, physical and technological measures that are reasonably designed to help protect your personal data from loss, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction. Pragmatica uses firewalls, encryption, access controls, and other security tools to help prevent unauthorized access to your personal data. We will only work with reputable third-party service providers, such as hosting providers and online practice management and communication tool providers, who have strong industry standard security and data protection standards and who are contractually and legally restricted from unauthorized use or disclosure of personal information. Please be aware that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure, and while we strive to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We retain personal data for as long as needed or permitted in light of the purpose(s) for which it was obtained and consistent with applicable law. The criteria used to determine our retention periods include:
In certain circumstances subject to the requirements of applicable laws, you can access, change or delete your personal data. If you would like to request to review, correct, update, suppress, object, restrict or delete personal data that you have previously provided to us, or if you would like to request to receive an electronic copy of your personal data for purposes of transmitting it to another company (to the extent this right to data portability is provided to you by applicable law), you may contact us by email at info@pragmaticalaw.com. We will respond to your request consistent with applicable law. In your request, please make clear what personal data you would like to have accessed, changed or deleted. For your protection, we may only implement requests with respect to the personal data associated with the particular email address that you use to send us your request, and we may need to verify your identity before implementing your request. We will try to comply with your request as soon as reasonably practicable in accordance with applicable law. California residents should refer to the “California Consumer Privacy Rights” section below for additional rights available to them.
If you are a California resident, you have the following rights with respect to your personal information under the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”):
1. Right to Know: You have the right to request that we disclose the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you, the categories of sources from which we collected it, our business purpose for collecting it, and the categories of third parties with whom we share it.
2. Right to Delete: You have the right to request deletion of personal information we have collected from you, subject to certain exceptions — including our obligations to retain information under the Rules of Professional Conduct, applicable legal holds, and other legal requirements.
3. Right to Correct: You have the right to request that we correct inaccurate personal information we maintain about you.
4. Right to Opt-Out of Sale or Sharing: We do not sell your personal information for monetary consideration. To the extent we “share” personal information as defined under the CPRA (which includes sharing for cross-context behavioral advertising), you have the right to opt out of such sharing.
5. Right to Limit Use of Sensitive Personal Information: To the extent we collect “sensitive personal information” as defined by the CPRA, you may have the right to limit certain uses and disclosures of that information to those necessary to perform our services.
6. Right to Non-Discrimination: We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA/CPRA privacy rights.
To exercise any of the above rights, you or your authorized agent may submit a verifiable consumer request to us at info@pragmaticalaw.com. We will confirm receipt of your request within 10 business days and respond to verified requests within 45 calendar days, with an extension of up to an additional 45 days where reasonably necessary and upon notice to you.
Please note that certain information may be exempt from these rights requests where it is subject to attorney-client privilege, our professional obligations under the Rules, or other applicable legal exemptions including the attorney-client exception under Cal. Civ. Code §1798.145.
Our computer systems are currently based in the United States, so your personal information will be processed by us in the United States where data protection and privacy regulations may not offer the same level of protection as in other parts of the world, such as the European Union. If you use the Site as a visitor from outside the United States, by using the Site, you agree to this Privacy Policy and you consent to the transfer of all such information to the United States, and to the processing of that information as described in this Privacy Policy. For transfers of personal data from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland to the United States, we will rely on appropriate transfer mechanisms as required by applicable law, which may include Standard Contractual Clauses (“SCCs”) approved by the European Commission or the United Kingdom Information Commissioner’s Office, or other lawful transfer mechanisms as may be recognized from time to time.
If you have any questions about our privacy practices or to submit a privacy rights request, please contact us at info@pragmaticalaw.com or write to Pragmatica Law LLP, Attn: Privacy, Two Embarcadero Center, 8th FL, San Francisco, California 94111.
